Norilsk Nickel is unique user of Northern Sea Route
At the First East Economic Forum, which was held in Vladivostok, the industry dialogue on the theme "Northern Sea Route: how to realize the transit potential" took place. To date, the potential of the Northern Sea Route is still underutilized. The main users of the Russian national maritime transport route in the Arctic is Norilsk Nickel. Active development of the Northern Sea Route started from the development of nickel deposits in Norilsk. Today, the potential of the Northern Sea Route is increasingly associated with oil and gas deposits on the Russian shelf, but the transit container flows may be another driver of the Northern Sea Route development.
